BTW, this already works fine in slink.  I installed my Sparc that way
-- the support for it is included in OpenBoot.  The install manual
describes how to setup servers.

The problem is that boot net just gets me a kernel and rootfs -- I
need a way to interact with the bootp or dhcp server to get my network
configuration also.  So I guess it mean hacking dbootstrap...
